By casting the mixture in your hand at the fire, you complete the spell. Immediately thereafter, a part of the flame coalesces into a vaguely humanoid shape more solid looking than the rest.
You animate a fire, which must be approximately the size of a campfire. The animated fire has the statistics of a Small fire elemental, and attacks as you direct. It cannot move beyond the range of its source fire (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels).
Material Component: A handful of charcoal, sulfur, and soda ash.
